I had no idea what was going to happen. I didn't know where/who I was running to or where/who I was running from. I was just running. The dream went to me standing on the edge of the roof of a tall building. A black wolf was growling behind me, the scruff of its neck in hackles.
"NO!" a highly recognizable male's voice yelled.
The dream went to a different point of view.
The man whose cry erupted from his mouth was my boyfriend and he was surrounded by my family and friends. I looked back at the wolf eyes frightened; he was standing between my family and me. I looked back at Edward's face, "I have to – to save you." A baby in Charlie's arms was crying.
I looked down and saw the wolf pack excluding Sam, Jacob, and Leah – but they were a few feet from where I would land.
"I'm sorry." I whispered. And I jumped.
"Bella!" Two voices cried out; Embry and Edward.
"Bella! Wake up!" a hand shook my shoulder.
"Charlie?" I asked, still half asleep.
"Bells, you okay?"
"I'm fine, Dad." My stomach growled. "Just hungry. What do you want for breakfast?"
"I've already ate. I just came to tell you I'm leaving for work."
"Oh."
"You'll be going to Billy and Jake's today?"
I nodded, I didn't trust my voice. Charlie didn't need to know that a werewolf imprinted on me and that I've been going there to avoid telling Edward. I'll tell him when I feel like it's the right time. Although, he had stopped coming around about a year ago.
I knew what that dream meant. I was afraid that after telling Edward about Embry it would start a war. I was afraid Charlie would side with Edward and take my three months due baby with him.
The phone started ringing – forcing me to get up from my bed.
"Hello?"
"Hey, Bella, it's Edward."
Crap. "Alice saw you. I didn't know you were pregnant."
"Yeah, seven months."
"When?"
As in who. I sighed. "After you stopped calling."
"Can I come over?"
"No." I replied, maybe a little too harshly.
"Alice said you would say that." He sounded sad
"Never bet against Alice, remember? I'm going to be out of town for a while. Goodbye, Edward."
Well, in a way I had told him I wasn't his anymore. And Alice had sort of showed him I was happy – unintentionally.
Oh well.
